All it takes to get on the road to better health is to put one foot in front of the other. This is National Walking Day, and the American Heart Association is encouraging Wyomingites to take a break from their busy schedules to take a few steps in the right direction, literally. Kim Daninger is a wellness consultant for Medtronic. She says just about everyone can begin a walking program.
Daninger says incorporating walking into your lifestyle has a multitude of benefits.
The American Heart Association says for every hour of regular exercise, there's a gain in two hours of life expectancy. A new study published in the A-H-A journal on stroke found women who walked two or more hours a week had a significantly lower risk of stroke than women who didn’t walk.
